Snoop Dogg And Bill O'Reilly Were In The Same Building!

President Barack Obama, legendary rapper Snoop Dogg (aka Snoop Lion) and Bill O'Reilly (aka Bill-O) together in the same building.

Yeah, it's true.

The first Black president, one of the country's most popular and controversial rappers and the conservative agitator were at the Kennedy Center earlier this month. They were at the Kennedy Center Honors.

Bill-O, a notorious critic of hip-hop music complained about Snoop Dogg being a featured guest on one of the Muppets holiday specials. He called for NBC to drop the rapper from the show. NBC complied and edited out the rapper.

Snoop on his part went off on the conservative agitator on a few songs.  He even told the agitator to "smoke his pole" literally! Snoop Dogg and Ludacris were two primary targets of the conservative agitator's rants.

Loserville made such a fuss about hip-hop music for glorifying gun violence, sexism and commercialism. They often single out Snoop and Jay-Z as their targets. Bill-O and That Guy Who Helped Obama Win were complaining about the rappers endorsing President Barack Obama in 2012.

Bily Joel, Herbie Hancock and Carlos Santana were honorees at the Kennedy Center.

President Barack Obama, Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor, Bill-O and rapper Snoop were giving their praise to the 2013 honorees.

Jazz singer and music producer Herbie Hancock was the honoree that Bill-O and Snoop praised.

“He’s always humble and serene,” Bill-O said of Hancock. “I need that kind of role model.”

“Thank you for creating hip hop,” said Snoop, who got a crowd including Renee Fleming and Mikhail Baryshnikov waving and rapping with him.

“Michelle and I love this man,” the president said of Hancock.  “Not just because he’s from Chicago. Not just because he and I had the same hairdo in the 1970s.”

You notice that Loserville defends the freedom of speech for Phil Robertson of Duck Dynasty, but wants the junk food media to pull the plug on Snoop, Ludacris, and Jay-Z. 

Shirley MacLaine, Billy Joel, Herbie Hancock and Martina Arroyo at the White House being inducted.

Loserville was all in arms when A &a E suspended the Quacker. They ran to the cameras claiming the "freedom of speech" is being under attack. They would allow a man who glorifies guns and says some pretty stupid shit about Blacks and the gays get a pass on controversy.

Why not Shawty Lo?

In January, Bill-O was complaining about All My Baby Mamas! The conservatives were calling for a boycott on Oxygen because Shawty Lo was trying to put his 10 children on the program.

Dream Big!

Mattel may create a plus-size Barbie doll! Is it controversial?

Toy maker Mattel brings a Barbie doll that certainly going to bring attention to the nation's overweight epidemic.

That Guy Who Post Shit On The Wall has link to the article from Bizpacreview.

Controversy is brewing over a request to remake Barbie in way contrary to the iconic image so many girls knew growing up. The skinny doll is going to look a little bigger, and I am wondering if the haters will come out against it!

I mean they've gotten upset over a Black and Muslim Barbie. What's next?

Well, according to Bizpacreview Plus-Size-Modeling.com is suggesting Mattel create a plus-size Barbie.

While some say more realistic curves would be a better role model for girls, others say an overly large Barbie would be an unhealthy example.

Plus Size Modeling conducted a poll on its Facebook page on Dec. 18 asking, “Should toy companies start making Plus Sized Barbie dolls?” In just under two weeks, a picture of the poll has received over 40,000 likes, 5,000 comments and 2,700 shares.

“Sure, but Barbie doesn’t need a double chin,” one comment said. “You can be ‘plus size’ w/o the double chin. They could make a ‘thick’ Barbie.”

“Portraying Barbie as a realistic woman with real curves is a very good idea and would send the right message to young girls about self-esteem,” another comment said. “Making a morbidly obese Barbie is BAD!!”

Then there’s this opinion:

“Okay I honestly don’t think how a Barbie looks affects a child’s self-esteem. When I was little I didn’t wanna look like Barbie. Lol. I didn’t think about my looks at all I just wanted to play…”

C'mon people, let's try something different. I mean there's nothing wrong with the idea!

Go for it!

Make the money!

Robin Roberts Comes Out Of The Newsroom!

Robin Roberts reveals she's gay. Roberts was the first anchor to interview President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama when they announced they support gay marriage.

Last year, Robin Roberts had the opportunity to interview the president on his evolution of gay marriage. He actually made it clear that he's now in favor of gay marriage. He done so in front of a good friend.

She remembers getting the "chills" when she heard the president speak so favorably about gay marriage.

Robin Roberts is a personal friend of the Obamas.

The ABC News reporter and host of Good Morning America came out this week.

Unlike the Jenna Wolfe and Raven-Symone's coming out parties, I am not too shocked about this revelation.

The Obamas got the opportunity to help motivate Roberts to publicly announce her relationship with another woman.

Add another Black entertainer in the media to come out as being gay or bisexual.

Roberts disclosed the relationship in a Facebook post in which she reflected on the past year. On Dec. 29, 2012, the news anchor celebrated 100 days post bone marrow transplant during her battle with myelodysplastic syndrome.

"At this moment I am at peace and filled with joy and gratitude," Roberts wrote. "I am grateful to God, my doctors and nurses for my restored good health. I am grateful for my sister, Sally-Ann, for being my donor and giving me the gift of life. I am grateful for my entire family, my long time girlfriend, Amber, and friends as we prepare to celebrate a glorious new year together."

Amber Laign is a licensed massage therapist from the San Francisco Bay Area, according to People magazine. She and Roberts met through mutual friends and have been together for 10 years.

"I am grateful for the many prayers and well wishes for my recovery. I return every one of them to you 100 fold," Roberts continued. "On this last Sunday of 2013 I encourage you to reflect on what you are grateful for too."

CNN's Brian Stelter noted that this is the first time Roberts has spoken publicly about her sexual orientation.

The 53-year-old follows in the footsteps of other famous figures who have chosen to discuss their personal lives without formally choosing a title or label.

Earlier this month, Olympic diver Tom Daley came out in a YouTube video, revealing he is in a relationship with a man. Last year, Frank Ocean came out in a blog post. He opened up about a same-sex relationship he had when he was 19 years old.

UPDATE: ABC News issued the following statement regarding Roberts' Facebook post (via BuzzFeed):

"We love Robin and Amber, who we have all known for a long time. We were so touched by Robin’s Facebook message today and so thankful for all the loving support she has in her life."

Also you can mark Utah as one of the newest states that allow gay marriage. Yeah, the conservative state of Utah had a federal repeal of their state law banning gay marriage.

Again, "US BLACK FOLK" have went through interracial marriage. And now we've evolved through gay marriage. It used to bother some Black people seeing gay people. It still does but not as much as it used to be. We're seeing progress!

Well wishes to Robin Roberts and her partner Amber Laign.

Unemployment Benefits Dry Up!

You know that the Republican Party isn't that popular among most Americans. But rather than send them back to the minority, the voters will continue to allow them to create political chaos in their never ending fight against President Barack Obama.

As a part of the grand bargain by Congressman Paul Ryan (R-WI) and Senator Patty Murray (D-WA) co-wrote a bill that keeps the government open but sacrifices things that are very important to Americans.

They announced a compromise that they had agreed to after extended discussions between them. The law raises the sequestration caps for fiscal years 2014 and 2015, in return for extending the imposition of the caps into 2022 and 2023, and miscellaneous savings elsewhere in the budget. Overall, the bill is projected to lower the debt by $23 billion over the long term.

The extension of unemployment benefits for laid off Americans isn't a part of the deal. Republicans opposed the idea of giving unemployment benefits to the jobless.

The end of unemployment checks for more than a million people could drive out-of-work Americans to consider selling cars, moving and taking minimum wage work after already slashing household budgets and pawning personal possessions to make ends meet.

The end to the five-year program that extended benefits for the long-term jobless affected 1.3 million people immediately and will affect hundreds of thousands more who remain jobless in the months ahead. Under the program, the federal government provided an average monthly stipend of $1,166.

While the Obama administration and Democrats in Congress want to continue the program, the extensions were dropped from a budget deal struck earlier this month and Republican lawmakers have balked at its $26 billion annual cost.

The Stallmigo Rand Paul calls unemployment benefits for the long term a disservice.

The end of the program may prompt a drop in the nation's unemployment rate, but not necessarily for a good reason. People out of work are required to look for work to receive unemployment benefits. As benefits disappear, some jobless will stop looking for work out of frustration and will no longer be counted as unemployed.

Listen to the Stallmigo Rand Paul (R-KY) talk about how unemployment benefits hurts Americans.

He calls it a disservice.

I call it a politico who is too stupid to realize that he's causing great harm to the middle class.

Doe B Passed Away!

Doe B (right) appears with rapper/reality star Clifford "T.I." Harris. Doe B was killed at a nightclub over the weekend.

Rising rap act Doe B was shot and killed in Alabama over the weekend. The young act was credited with the single "Let Me Find Out". Doe B, real name Glenn Thomas of Montgomery was found died early Saturday morning according to local junk food media sources.

The rapper had ties to T.I.'s Hustle Gang and was signed to the Grand Hustle label. The rapper expressed condolences to his fallen friend.

RIP to my lil brother Doe B. We gon miss u my nigga. U'll never be forgotten & U WILL NOT DIE IN VAIN. We Love U champ. Always.

Doe B, age 22 and 21 year old Kimberle Johnson and six other victims were shot at Centennial Hill Bar and Grill. Johnson was pronounced dead at the scene, while Thomas was pronounced dead at a local hospital.

It was formerly known as Rose Supper Club, but that establishment lost its liquor license and closed a year ago after a December 2012 shooting left six people injured. Centennial Hill opened earlier this year.

Baby Jesus Mixtape sponsored by Doe B and DJ Scream.

He was known for his Trap style and his signature eye patch, which he has worn since another shooting three years ago.

CNN reports that on the cover of his new album Baby Jesus, a baby is pictured dressed like Doe B with the eye patch and with additional bullet wounds on the left arm.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Doe B.

The Black Girls Club: Open Thread: Must be that time of year

The Black Girls Club: Open Thread: Must be that time of year: (h/t Racialicious ) Soon to follow: a "Black women are still fat" article and the latest crime/unemployment stats involving ...

 Black women know our history of racism in America more than any other group. We have agency and choice. Our choice is to either have a Brotha, be single and happy, have a nonblack MOC, foreign, non-American influenced White man, preferably from Southern Europe, or just be happy period. We're not lamenting, we're going our own way and the powers that be hates that deeply.

I'm glad Black women think outside of the box instead of conforming to America's definition of what's the good life.

Ohio Teacher Tells Black Student He's Not Cut Out To Be President!

I guess some right wing teacher will have a longer Winter break. After the junk food media reported on him saying some stupid things to a Black student about the president, one may think his days are numbered at a local suburban school.

Gil Voigt is a Fairfield, Ohio teacher who got in some real trouble. He told one of his Black students that Barack Obama, the first Black president will be the only one the country will see. He now sees his future as an educator on the line after making that inflammatory comment.


Voigt allegedly told the student that he couldn't become President because America doesn't need another black person in the White House. “We do not need another black president,” Voigt said, according to the Cincinnati Enquirer.

Now I know that educators are supposed to help motivate students prepare for the future. They want to encourage young minds to achieve success. I mean the first Black man to become president is historical. It opens the doors for a woman or a person of color to be the next president.

Barack Obama achieved his goals of winning two landslide elections, appointing the first Latina to be a Supreme Court justice, has the credit ordering the military to kill the world's most wanted terrorist and managed to fix the economy. And despite having one of the country's least productive Congress, Barack Obama continues to move forward.

Fairfield Freshman School teacher has been suspended without pay and faces the prospect of dismissal after allegedly making racially insensitive statements to a student earlier this month.

Monday, the Fairfield Board of Education suspended science teacher Gil Voigt. He has 10 days to request a hearing before the school board or a referee.

The incident occurred on Dec. 3, with several other students present, according to a report from Assistant Superintendent Roger Martin, who conducted a disciplinary hearing on the matter.

It isn’t the first time the 14-year Fairfield teacher has been disciplined. He received a verbal warning for making an inappropriate racial comment in 2008. That year he also received a verbal warning for improper use of school technology.

Last year he received a verbal warning after allegedly calling a student “stupid” and belittling him. He received a written warning last month for failure to use the adopted curriculum.

“This is a rare occurrence. This is the first time I’ve faced it since being named assistant superintendent (in 2011),” Martin said.

In his report, Martin said he believed four students were interviewed who corroborated the student Voigt was speaking to.

Following a complaint by the student’s parents, the teen was removed from Voigt’s class, Martin said.

“We intend to uphold board policies and to hold teachers accountable for the essential functions of the teacher job description,” Martin said.

The racist right rather see young Blacks in the iron college. Hell they think that most of them are playing the knockout game!

Voigt is accused of violating board policies related to staff ethics, staff-student relations and harassment.

Voigt was not present at the meeting and could not be reached on Monday for comment.

According to the report, Voigt said his statement was misquoted by the student, who he said was not a very good student and was troublesome in class.


Voigt has been a Fairfield teacher since 2000. Before that he taught seven years in North Carolina, two years in Florida and six years in the Cincinnati Public Schools. 

While many conservatives were upset that President Barack Obama trounced perennial loser Mitt Romney, the hangover was expected. This is the umpteenth time we've heard about an anti-Obama politico or educator taking their disgust of the first Black president in the public sector.

I promise you that if we get a Republican majority in the Congress, you'll expect more of this nonsense. 

This educator is the reasons why liberals call conservatives the racist, stupid and utterly condescending individuals they've been painted out to be.

Thanks to the Cincinnati Enquirer and Addicting Info for the story.

I've often check Public Shaming, Addicting Info, The Hinterland Post,  and The Raw Story for my rational fix of politics . Sometimes when you look at these stories, I kind of shake my head in disgust. I really hate how our country achieve so much and yet still have this nonsense going around.

Famed YouTube comedian ELawshea nails it!
